Automated Testing #3

Open colbych opened 7 years ago

colbych commented 7 years ago

This code can do a lot, but making changes to the core files (i.e. dump, dumpID and movie) can have bad effects on the visualization part of the code (e.g. vdist_plotter, sub etc.)

We should put some (very small) dump files and movie files in the repository and make automated tests to make sure updates/patches do not mess up the whole code.

Maybe someone other than Colby do this? (Maybe Prayash? maybe unnamed new graduate student?)

Began working on this on the branch tests. Right now Tests has both dump files and movie files to see if it works. This needs a lot more work.
